Language was possible to choose. I know many people chose Spanish by
pressing appropriate function key and arrowing down a set number of times.
Personally I can use English and understand English synthetic voice, but
many can't.

That is not a bad idea, but sadly, Hardy installation experience will be a
downgrade.
